The two were supposed to meet at <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/one-championship\/one-heart-of-the-lion-live-results-and-highlights\/\">ONE&#8217;s big Heart of the Lion event<\/a> in November.

Folayang bested Aoki by third-round knockout in November 2016.<\/p>\n<p>The craziest part about this card is that these aren&#8217;t the only fights that will be on it. If this card is any indication, it should be safe to say that ONE will be bringing the MMA heat in 2019.<\/p>\n<p><em>This article first appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\">BJPenn.com<\/a> on 12\/19\/2018<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The long-awaited promotional debuts of ONE Championship&#8217;s biggest acquisitions to date in former UFC champions Demetrious &#8220;Mighty Mouse&#8221; Johnson and Eddie Alvarez have been set.
